Which is more energy-efficient, a Roots blower or a centrifugal fan? !

2017-02-21View Original

Thread Content

A centrifugal fan pressurizes gas to a certain level and then pushes the gas forward. The Roots blower, on the other hand, is of the back-pressure type, and its operation is determined by the resistance at the end point within a certain range. Theoretically, rotary vane blowers are more energy-efficient. But centrifugal fans seem to be used much more widely than Roots fans.

It also seems that rotary vane blowers are more energy-efficient, but they are too noisy.

Large volume, low pressure. Small in volume, high in pressure, and used under different conditions

Yes, many people talk about the noise problem of rotary vane blowers. .

Indeed, rotary blowers are more energy-efficient~
Reply #62017-02-22
But in terms of quantity, centrifugal fans are used more often. .

There are obviously other considerations at play; perhaps the head pressure provided by the rotary vane blower is not sufficient, so a centrifuge has to be used instead

Not really; generally, rotary vane blowers have a higher pressure head. . It’s most likely still a noise issue. .

It depends on how you use them: those that operate under pressure are rotary blowers, while those with low pressure or that operate at atmospheric pressure are centrifugal blowers

In practical use, it might be more accurate to make a comparison based on the requirements for air volume and air pressure.
